The entire Netherlands is now dealing with the effects of the corona virus. It is a far-reaching situation which is having a huge impact on people and organisations. The country-wide measures being taken also have consequences for any language training courses you have planned or wished to plan.
Training sessions in our virtual classroom
Owing to measures advised by the government, training sessions cannot take place in the way in which many people are accustomed: with trainer and student(s) together in one room. Fortunately, we are able to offer a good alternative in the shape of a virtual classroom on our online learning platform LPOnline: BigBlueButton.
With BigBlueButton, the trainer can teach individual students and groups ‘live’, without sacrificing training quality. We are offering this tool free of charge to replace face-to-face sessions so that students do not lose momentum in their language learning and intercultural competence development, also to clients who have not previously used our platform.
More than online training
BigBlueButton offers many ways to allow lessons to progress effectively. Students can participate in a training session using their webcam. Trainers can share realtime audio, video or presentations and make notes on a whiteboard. Also, students can chat with the trainer and each other during the session, or work together in break out rooms within the tool. The online training can also be recorded so that students who have missed a session can watch it later.
Any questions?
As far as possible, clients with training courses in progress have been or will shortly be contacted. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. We will be happy to discuss the possibilities with you.
